The whole sect is full of cunning people, only I am really stupid

Wuyou walked upstream along the river.

It only took a few hours to find the village that Shen Ya mentioned.

This is a poor village.

It is located at the foot of the mountain and has only forty or fifty households.

They were all wearing patched clothes similar to Shen Ya's.

Because of the poor harvest, every one of them looked pale and thin.

Wuyou, dressed in green, stood there, like a young master from a wealthy family.

The villagers didn't even dare to get close.

After spending some money, Wuyou found out everything about Shen Ya's short three-year life.

In the dark clouds, lightning as thick as buckets rolled, illuminating the sky with a snow-white glow.

Three years ago, it was such a thunderous weather.

Aunt Li ran out like crazy to find her son who was lost in the forest.

Everyone in the village went to look for Aunt Li but couldn't find her.

Finally, Aunt Li came out by herself.

She was dripping wet.

She was carrying her son's body on her back and holding a baby in her arms.

He walked out of the ghost valley where no one had ever set foot.

In the dark rainy night.

She looked up at the villagers, her eyes empty, like a ghost crawling out of hell.

Maybe she is already a ghost.

Over the years, she is the only one who has entered Ghost Valley and was able to come out.

Aunt Li buried her own son and then raised the baby as her own granddaughter.

Aunt Li, who had not received much education, gave her a name that sounded nice.

Shen Ya.

The villagers originally disagreed.

It’s not that they are cruel.

But a child of unknown origin seems weird no matter how you look at him.

Aunt Li was like a madman, determined to keep the child no matter what.

She went straight to the village chief's house with a knife and said that if he didn't agree, she would slit her own throat in the village chief's house.

The village chief was frightened and agreed quickly.

This kid from Guigu is really a bit evil.

The harvest has been poor in recent years and every household is living in poverty.

Every child in the village is pale and thin.

But she is fair and clean.

If she wasn't so thin, you wouldn't be able to tell that she grew up in the village.

Wuyou asked, "What's the problem with Guigu?"

"That place is very strange. No one knows when it started, but everyone who went in has been unable to come out. Aunt Li was the first to come out. And no one knows where Shen Ya came from."

"Maybe she's the one who made Guigu so strange."

"After Aunt Li left, the plants near her house grew wildly overnight. Fortunately, the child left. If she hadn't left, who knows what strange things would have happened."

"You'd better stay away from it, that place is too weird."

eccentric?

Wuyou is not afraid of weird things.

He went to Shen Ya's home.

What the villagers said is true.

The plants near Shen Ya's house are obviously much taller than those in other places.

One of the peach trees was so big that it exceeded the size that should be found in the mortal world.

It's obviously autumn.

It was a tree with peach blossoms blooming out of season.

The huge tree canopy covers the small house under the tree. From a distance, it looks like a giant guard protecting this place.

It's really weird.

Wuyou walked into the peach tree and found that it was full of spiritual energy and was even showing signs of being reborn into a spirit.

"Yaya, find Yaya."

The peach tree murmured unconsciously, speaking a language that mortals could not understand.

"Ya Ya?"

Did the tree know the child he saved?

Wuyou's hand fell on the peach tree, "Are you looking for Shen Ya?"

As soon as Shen Ya's name came out, the peach tree began to tremble violently.

It seemed that he could not suppress his joy, and Wuyou was surrounded by peach blossoms.

"Yaya, look for her, where is she?"

"Come with me, I'll take you to find her." Wuyou said.

An ordinary peach tree can actually become a spirit, which is somewhat strange no matter how you look at it.

It would be better to take it back and show it to Master.

Besides, if it was left here, it might frighten the villagers and it might be chopped down.

That would be a pity.

The peach tree began to shake again, and excitedly rained pink rain. "Take me to find Yaya, thank you."

Wuyou made a seal with his hands.

A beam of light fell on the huge peach tree and circled around the tree several times.

As the light rotated, the peach tree shrank to the size of a palm.

"Just stay here and I'll take you to see her tomorrow."

Wuyou is not ready to turn back.

He put the tree into his pet bag and prepared to go take a look at the so-called Ghost Valley.

According to the villagers, Guigu became strange around the same time as Shen Ya appeared.

He was curious about how the two were related.

"It's actually a formation."

Wuyou never thought that he would actually see a formation in the mortal world, and it looked like a very advanced formation.

Although the formation is in ruins, judging from the remaining traces, this formation is not something that ordinary people can set up.

Master actually guessed it right.

The little girl they picked up was really extraordinary.

He walked a little further inside and found that the formation had been completely destroyed, and the area within the formation was filled with withered flowers, plants and trees.

Wuyou's attainments in battle formations are average.

He sketched out the remaining formations and prepared to take them back to show his master.

After walking around Guigu, I didn't get any more information.

Wuyou didn't stay for long and went back to find Wuxun.

"Master."

Wuyou didn't even go into his own room and came to find Wuxun.

Wu Xun stood up and walked out of the room.

After closing the door, he motioned Wuyou to go to his room to talk.

"Thank you for your hard work. How is it?"

"It's definitely weird."

Wuyou told Wuxun everything he had seen and heard.

Advanced formations, strange plants, and residual spiritual energy.

None of them should appear in the mundane world.

But they all happened.

There's something weird about this matter from the inside out.

Wuyou even suspected that Shen Ya was a spy who was sent to infiltrate the world of immortals.

"It seems like we picked up a not-so-simple kid."

Wu Xun just felt that Shen Ya’s talent was weird.

I didn't expect there were so many weird places.

"Master, could she be a spy?"

"Spy? If you had a descendant with a top-grade single spiritual root, would you be willing to let him be a spy?"

Wu Xun smiled.

Wuyou shook his head.

That's definitely something I'd be reluctant to give up.

Only a fool would do such a thing.

If a genius with a top-grade single spiritual root is well cultivated.

In time, it will become a rising star that can defeat thousands of troops.

It's a waste of talent to be a small spy.

If you are brainwashed by the enemy, it will be more trouble than gain.

"and--"

Wu Xun tapped the paper on the table with his slender fingertips and said calmly, "This is a killing formation, an ancient killing formation."
